One memory keeper noticed that healing has been an important theme, especially after Bishop Andrew Atagotaaluk’s comment yesterday—that leaders need to be healed before they move on to mission.

This statement inspired lots of questions in the talking circles:

  • How do we deal with leaders who are half-healed or not healed at all?
  • Clergy often bear a lot of grief, emotion, and stress—especially in isolated communities. How are we supporting them?
  • What role does the Truth and Reconciliation Commission play in our healing? What can we realistically expect?
